Able to send and receive data over the internet. 6-Feb-2016 Vivek Gupta, CDGI Indore IOT - Introduction 6-Feb-2016 Vivek Gupta, CDGI Indore IOT - Introduction Refer to wide variety of devices Person with heart monitoring implant. A farm with biochip transponder. An automobile that altert driver or send data information to menufacturer. Any other things which can be connected to internet for transferring of data. 6-Feb-2016 Vivek Gupta, CDGI Indore IOT - Examples Smart Thermostate System that connect to smart phone via wi-fi and internet to control Home AC and heating systems. Coke machine at Carnegie Mellon University internet-connected appliance, able to report its inventory that newly loaded drinks were cold. 6-Feb-2016 Vivek Gupta, CDGI Indore IOT The Internet of Things (IoT) is an environment in which interconnected things with unique identifier over internet are provided are able to transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction. 6-Feb-2016 Vivek Gupta, CDGI Indore IOT Techonolgies Amalgamation of multiple technologies Wirless communication to the internet. • RFID and near-field communication. • Bluetooth low energy (BLE). Embedded system. Micro-electromechanical System (MEMS) 6-Feb-2016 Vivek Gupta, CDGI Indore Evaluation of IOT 1982 : Coke machine at Carnegie Mellon University was first internet-connected appliance, able to report its inventory that loaded drinks were cold. 1990 : Connected devices to internet was a Toaster. 1999 : IOT first became popular, when Kevin Ashton founded Auto-ID center at MIT. 6-Feb-2016 Vivek Gupta, CDGI Indore Evaluation of IOT 1999 : First Machine-to-Machine IOT protocol developed by IBM.It is called MQ elemetry Transport (MQTT). 2000 : LG announced the plan for first internet Refrigerator. 2002 : Ambient Orb was relesed , which displays Dow Jones, personal finance and weather information based on internet data. 6-Feb-2016 Vivek Gupta, CDGI Indore Evaluation of IOT 2005 : The UN first mentioned IOT in a published ITU report : “A new dimension has been added to the world of information and communication ...from any time any place connectivity for anyone ....for anything. Connections will multiply and create an entirly new dynamic network of networks – an Internet of Things.” 6-Feb-2016 Vivek Gupta, CDGI Indore Evaluation of IOT 2008 : IPSO (Identity and Privacy for the Next Generation of Smart Objects) alliance launches to promote the use of Internet Protocol(IP) in connected devices. 2011 : Ipv6 was launched.

  • Orb TV Pushes Into the Living Room
    Orb TV Pushes Into the Living Room By NICK BILTON | November 19, 2010, 7:31 am 4 There is a new contender in the the digital living room called Orb TV, which can stream content from Hulu and other online services directly to a television. The new gadget, which look like a thick pancake, plugs directly into a television through standard cables and streams content to the TV via a computer running free Orb software, called Orb Caster. The software acts like a personal content control tower. Joe Costello, chief executive and founder of Orb Networks, maker of the new device, recognizes that he is heading into a crowded space with a lot of big-name competition, but he says he believes the simplicity of his new product will separate the Orb from other digital video goods. In its quest for simplicity, the $100 device doesn’t come with a remote control. Instead, users are asked to download a free application for a smartphone or mobile device running the Apple iOS or Google Android. The phone then becomes the remote for the Orb. “We’ve created a great user experience with the smartphone and we think this really separates Orb TV from the others in the space like Roku and Google TV,” Mr. Costello said. “This is key for simplicity as most devices in the living room are in an awkward phase right now — almost like an awkward teenage phase — but we’re finally figuring it out.” Another feature that separates Orb TV from gadgetry competing in the living room is its ability to play video from Hulu, a service that does not work on most competing platforms.

  • Windows 7'S Desktop Slideshow Themes
    Windows 7's Desktop Slideshow Themes Support for themes has been extended in Windows 7. In addition to setting the colors of the window chrome, desktop background, desktop icons, mouse pointers and sound schemes, themes in Windows 7 include desktop slideshow settings. A new control panel interface, accessible through the "Personalize" context menu item on the desktop, has been introduced which provides the ability to customize and switch between themes, as well as download more themes from Microsoft's web site. A number of sound schemes are included, each associated with an included theme: Afternoon, Calligraphy, Characters, Cityscape, Delta, Festival, Garden, Heritage, Landscape, Quirky, Raga, Savanna, and Sonata. Additional theme packs are available as free downloads from Microsoft's web site. Desktop Slideshow Windows 7 includes a desktop slideshow that changes the desktop background in a designated amount of time with a smooth fading transition. This feature supports pre-downloaded sets of wallpapers and also supports photo RSS feed. Gadgets Windows Vista introduced Gadgets and a sidebar which provides the ability to anchor Gadgets to the side of the user's desktop. In Windows 7, the sidebar has been removed, while gadgets can still be placed on the desktop. Windows 7 adds a Windows Media Center gadget to the default collection while removing the Contacts and Notes gadgets. Managing gadgets is more closely integrated with Windows Explorer, but the gadgets themselves continue to operate in a separate sidebar.exe process.The Desktop context menu includes a new "Gadgets" menu option to access the gadget gallery, and a "View" sub-menu option to show or hide gadgets.

  • Examining Presence and Lightweight Messaging in a Social Television Experience
    Examining Presence and Lightweight Messaging in a Social Television Experience CRYSTA METCALF, GUNNAR HARBOE, JOE TULLIO, NOEL MASSEY, GUY ROMANO, ELAINE M. HUANG, and FRANK BENTLEY Motorola Labs We report on a field evaluation of a prototype social television system (Social TV) that incorporates lightweight messaging as well as ambient awareness of user presence on the system. This evaluation was conducted over a two-week period and involved 27 the participation of ten households. Participants appreciated the ability to see their buddies’ presence on the system, the ability to see or suggest the programs they were currently watching, and the ability to send short messages to one another. The presence facilities available in Social TV also allowed participants to learn more about one another’s TV viewing habits and preferences, and fostered a sense of connectedness between them. However, they also felt constrained by the limitations of the communication options available to them and demanded free-form text or voice chat to be able to fully express themselves.

  • A Novel Approach to Local Multimedia Sharing
    Technical report, IDE1115, May 2011 A novel approach to local multimedia sharing Master’s Thesis in Computer Systems Engineering Tim Motmans & Sander Bel School of Information Science, Computer and Electrical Engineering Halmstad University A novel approach to local multimedia sharing Master’s Thesis in Computer Systems Engineering School of Information Science, Computer and Electrical Engineering Halmstad University Box 823, S-301 18 Halmstad, Sweden May 2011 Preface 1 Preface It all started in August 2010 when Sander got the idea to participate in an Erasmus project in Grenoble, France. However, after a while, this seemed not possible because the courses were given in French and they were only Bachelor degree. Since Sander was obliged to attend Master degree courses together with the Master thesis project, Grenoble was not suitable for his kind of studies. While Sander was still trying to find a well-suited place to study when the new school year started, Tim got word of his idea to study abroad. Since Tim already went abroad 2 years ago to study in Seinäjoki, Finland for his Bachelor degree and had great experiences with it, he was really interested to study abroad again. Tim even wanted to attend his Master degree Erasmus project in the same city. Since we were colleagues in the same class, the idea came up that we both could study abroad in Seinäjoki. But after contacting the Seinäjoki school of Technology, which is a faculty of the University of Applied Sciences, again some problems came up. This time courses were given in English, but there were no Master degree courses available.
